CDU Saxony-Anhalt to boycott AfD PM election by leaving hall

The CDU faction in Saxony-Anhalt plans to leave the plenary hall during the election of AfD candidate Ulrich Siegmund as Minister-President, a move to prevent speculation about internal dissent. This is a procedural protest within the state parliament, reflecting heightened polarization. The outcome of the election remains uncertain, but the CDU's coordinated exit signals a firm stance against the AfD.
